Getting a weird percent sign in printf output in terminal with C
c, printf, zsh
Solution
When (non-null) output from a program doesn't include a trailing newline, zsh adds that color-inverted `%` to indicate that and moves to the next line before printing the prompt; it's generally more convenient than bash's behavior, just starting the command prompt where the output ended.
Problem
I have this `printf` statement at the end of my program: ``` printf("%d", total_candies); ``` `total_candies` is an `int`, and while I expect everything to work correctly, along with the actual number, I'm getting a weird percent sign at the end. Can anyone tell me why this is happening?
